I've sorted my FO4 load order with that snapshot without issues: LOOTDebugLog

Do you have any other games installed to try with?

I have got installed and modded Skyrim, FNV and FO4 and have got installed (but vanilla) SSE, Oblivion and FO3. I do not own FO4 VR or Skyrim VR.

Also, there might be an issue with the cc plugins for FO4. I did not get an error while using LOOT, however I think that not all my cc plugins get recognized by LOOT. More on that in a few minutes, need to check that first.

I own 23 cc plugins (22 .esl's + 1 .esm). LOOT recognizes these:

ccbgsfo4001-pipboy(black).esl
ccbgsfo4005-bluecamo.esl
ccbgsfo4022-powerarmorskin(camo01).esl
ccbgsfo4033-powerarmorskinwhite.esl
ccbgsfo4024-pacamo03.esl
ccbgsfo4045-advarccab.esl
ccgcafo4005-factionws05hrpink.esl
ccgcafo4015-factionas04hrpink.esl
ccswkfo4001-astronautpowerarmor.esm
ccbgsfo4050-dgbcoll.esl
ccbgsfo4052-dgdal.esl
ccbgsfo4061-dgshiinu.esl
ccbgsfo4036-trnsdg.esl
ccfrsfo4002-antimaterielrifle.esl

However, for some reason I'm not seeing the following ones within LOOT:

ccbgsfo4016-prey.esl
ccbgsfo4020-powerarmorskin(black).esl
ccbgsfo4023-powerarmorskin(camo02).esl
ccbgsfo4025-powerarmorskin(chrome).esl
ccbgsfo4033-powerarmorskinwhite.esl
ccbgsfo4038-horsearmor.esl
ccbgsfo4042-bfg.esl
ccfsvfo4001-modularmilitarybackpack.esl
ccfsvfo4002-midcenturymodern.esl

The one I already posted applies.

[11:40:57.102542] [trace]: Checking to see if "ccbgsfo4016-prey.esl" is a valid plugin.
[11:40:57.102542] [warning]: The file "ccbgsfo4016-prey.esl" is not a valid plugin.

Huh, weird. I've seen those plugins picked up correctly in other logs from the recent bug reports. Although, investigating, when I copy those plugin names as you gave them into a text editor, they have extra invisible characters. They're not there in the debug log, so I wonder if there's some funny filename encoding stuff going on, and/orr the forum could be mangling things.

Try renaming one of the plugins, typing out the name as you see it, so that it definitely doesn't contain any invisibles, then running LOOT again.

Hmm no that doesn't seem to have any effect (neither with the same string, nor with e.g. test.esl). I've also gone back to v0.12.0, the first version of LOOT to support FO4 .esl plugins. prey.esl & the rest won't be displayed with that build aswell.

I'm pretty sure this is #956, try the fix posted there.

While the fix posted there (I'm assuming you mean the new .dll) didn't work (it was throwing an error about "couldn't find entry point" I think? Whatever it was it doesn't seem to matter), the 0.13.1 release *did* fix my issues. Thank you.

And on that note...

LOOT v0.13.1 released!

Hopefully this one's boring.

Seems to work with the Creation Club mods, at least, it doesn't throw errors. Although nmm doesn't seem to like it (the mod is hard-coded to FE000), the mod is the free (today) hot pink armor paint. According to nmm, it's placed between 0E15 and 0F16 in the plugin's tab.

I don't understand what you mean...

I just tried to DL v0.13.1 and Norton System Works keeps complaining that this is infected with a virus. :(

Probably just triggering heuristics, virus scanners seem to dislike every LOOT release. Try with another scanner if you want peace of mind.

Nexus automatically passes everything uploaded onto Nexus through VirusTotal have a look at the files there, and click the green tick to be taken to the VirusTotal results page ..

here is the results for LOOT 0.13.1

https://www.virustotal.com/en/file/e93993bbbe02fbfffb40fb7e904a8097f844c00bcb12621d5d2ef91b2e98dc36/analysis/1528036033/

Symantec on that list (same people who do Norton) gave it a green tick.

@Whoever is doing masterlist updates - Got a few "Clean with xEdit v3.2.1" results from the Manual Cleaning Skyrim Master Files topic

The following are mostly using the usual auto cleaning (Filter for Clean, then ITMs, then UDRs), but the Dawnguard.esm had an additional step of manual cleaning as per the guide. I dont think everyone will be using the guide, and probably quite a lot of people dont realise Dawnguard needs a second clean to catch the 6 extra ITMs .. So not sure how LOOT ought to present a message for the various stages of cleaning that plugin.

Dawnguard original CRC = Needs Cleaning

Dawnguard auto clean first time CRC = Needs further cleaning for 6 remaining ITMs

Dawnguard auto clean second time CRC = Clean

Dawnguard auto clean plus manual clean CRC = Also clean (but its a bit cleaner due to manual clean out of the testing cell etc) 

I dont know if Skyrim Original plugins are coming up clean in LOOT, I dont have Skyrim LE installed, but Skyrim SE (latest version of official plugins after cleaning) are not ..

LOOT just crashes at "Parsing, merging, and evaluating metadata...". I've tried deleting user metadata with no change in results. I'm using an old version of MO1, does that have anything to do with the problem? I tried a dev version of 12.5 and the same issue occurred.

Disregard this, when I updated my GPU drivers (NVIDIA) then LOOT ran as normal. Can anybody tell me why this solved the problem? Just curious.

Dawnguard auto clean first time CRC = Needs further cleaning for 6 remaining ITMs

This will still be marked as dirty, Displaying for SSE (6 ITM, 0 UDR, 57 nav)

Quote

Dawnguard auto clean second time CRC = Clean

Dawnguard auto clean plus manual clean CRC = Also clean (but its a bit cleaner due to manual clean out of the testing cell etc) 

Both can be marked as clean, adding a message to say one is cleaner than the other will just raise unnecessary questions.

A message could be added for that final Dawnguard.esm CRC to inform them of the remaining wild edits, with a link to the below guide

I have both LE & SSE so I can check LE cleaning later.

Some of you may have seen the news that GitHub is being bought by Microsoft for $7.5 billion, little did they know that wouldn't be today's biggest GitHub-related news, because CptMcSplody is joining the LOOT team! CptMcSplody's made a lot of quality contributions in recent months, adding metadata to the masterlists and helping to answer support queries, and will be able to do so more easily as part of the team.

Plus, it means less clicking on "Merge Request" buttons without having anything to complain about for me. :P

Thanks, delighted to join the LOOT team. Your constructive feedback improved my contributions tremendously :whip::frantics:

:) Thats pretty much what I was thinking too, my post was more of a prompt for discussion of how to present what could do with being mentioned.

Still dirty for the remaining 6 ITMs

And for the final 2 stages Both marked as clean but an additional advisory message and link to achieve the last CRC sounds good to me too, the last CRC just being noted as Verified Clean with xEdit v3.2.1 and LOOTs new Clean Water Drip icon.

Just updated my masterlists and noticed you already have updated them :cool:

Special Notes :

1. Users of USSEP should never try to clean this mod.

2. This mod (by design) is a fake esm, it has the esp extension but will be grouped among the esms. Do not rename it.

 

Edit : I think Note No. 2 for USSEP would be good to have, because one of the mod managers (I think its NMM) is giving a Warning to users that the mod is a Fake.esm .. As if thats something to warn people about and is not a valid modding practice for special cases such as the Unofficial Patches. The result of that warning is a lot of users repeatedly asking the unofficial patch team "why is my mod manager warning me about your mod?", when there is nothing to be concerned with.

 

Some of the above are pending updates, but ETA unknown.

And I have a few more beta plugins like DynDOLOD plus support plugins .. But leaving them until they go live etc.

I could combine those two messages into one, something like "Please do not modify or rename this plug-in, its edits and .esp extension are intentional."

 

Edit: Above changes have been added except for the USSEP Special notes.

Edit 2:

Plug-in information has been updated for LE masters. Manual cleaning check and message has also added.

Fadingsignal has recently noticed it (been busy elsewhere) and will be incorporating the moss edits in the main file .. Until then there are two version of the plugin as above, both clean.

Cool, that's pretty much ready to go live, I just have one query about Verdant.

Verdant - A Skyrim Grass Plugin SSE Version.esp  - v1.5 - CRC = 102BBC11 = Verified Clean with SSEEdit v3.2.1 :

Which plug-in version is this?

I'm getting the following results from cleaning v1.5.

main file

CRC = 730EF406,  Dirty: 11 ITM, 0 UDR, 0 nav

CRC = 76E6CE3C Clean SSEEdit v3.2.1

W.A,T.E.R version

OCS compatible version

Has the v1.5 - CRC = 102BBC11 not be released yet?
